Chapter 204: The Last Torment
What is Destiny called? Destiny may be that everyone stands together, but the smart people have already guessed the possible outcome from the beginning of the general trend, while the stupid people can only wait until the results come out to know "so it is"!
The entanglement of the three kingdoms was caused by the misalignment of the balance ten years ago, some people had more and some people had less, and the balance was uneven; Ten years later, everyone is in the wrong position, the unevenness is still uneven, the old trouble has not been removed, and the new problem is born.
In the cold winter of that year, not long after the marriage of Shangguan Jingxuan and Yuan Chengcheng was announced, the general trend of the world turned a big heel. Anning and the two countries exchanged troops, Huaguo suddenly drew salaries from the bottom of the kettle, Anguo was defeated, Shangguan Jingwen was forced to evacuate Huaguo, Yuan Xiao regained the power of Huaguo, and the first major decision he made after regaining the royal power was to establish Yuan Chengcheng as the queen!
The princess's marriage was full of twists and turns, and in the blink of an eye, the groom had changes again. All of a sudden, the world was in an uproar.
The marriage of this stunning princess is really more unpredictable than the weather in June. Ignoring the princes and grandsons in the world, just King Ning Huangfu Yehan, who was once married, Shangguan Jingxuan, the brother of King An, who had an ambiguous relationship with the princess, and Huawang Yuanxiao, who has always coveted his aunt's beauty, the three of them are enough to make the people of the world have no shortage of talking points for several years after tea and dinner.
Whether everything is a plan or an accident, the things in the power field are too complicated, Yuan Chengcheng no longer wants to find out, just like the attitude towards the Mandate of Heaven, he already knows the ending, so he no longer cares about the process.
The An army retreated, but Shangguan Jingxuan stayed by Yuan Chengcheng's side as usual, without the slightest intention of leaving, as if this earth-shaking change had nothing to do with them, and only the two of them were left in the vast world.
How about a peaceful war? How about Huaning United? What about Hua'an's conspiracy? If you don't care anymore, what does it have to do with him?
Of course, they are willing to be free and easy, and others may not be equally optimistic, such as Yuan Xiao. A person who takes "revenge and revenge" as his motto will naturally not let go of the old enemy who once almost put himself to death.
As soon as Yuan Xiao regained the royal power, he immediately ordered Shangguan Jingxuan to be put in a cage in the palace where fierce beasts were raised, the cage was three feet high, and people couldn't even stand up, Yuan Xiao was determined to torture him. But Shangguan Jingxuan seemed to have been mentally prepared, but being in the beast cage was the same as sitting in the wild and waiting for someone to have dinner, with an indifferent and leisurely face, without the slightest offence.
Shangguan Jingxuan's Ren Jun's disposition made Yuan Xiao doubt the reason why he could be so bold several times. He had every reason to suspect that everything was a conspiracy of the Shangguan brothers, and Shangguan Jingwen was still in ambush in that corner of the palace at all, and he would jump out at any time and devour everything in Huaguo.
Shangguan Jingwen has already retired from Anguo, of course, it is impossible to kill and come back suddenly, but Yuan Xiao's guess is by no means all soldiers, Shangguan Jingxuan is indeed another helper.
After many years of ups and downs, Yuan Chengcheng has almost forgotten his 17-year-old self. But after the storm, when everything had come to an end, she suddenly found her way before she was seventeen years old, and she changed back to the playful and lovely girl she was at the beginning. And back then, Yuan Chengcheng didn't want to be trapped by anyone, because she did everything, such as disguise, climbing walls, and stealing keys.
On the night when Yuan Chengcheng released Shangguan Jingxuan privately, it was Yuan Xiao who personally led people to arrest them, they were like two thieves who ate the overlord meal and were chased and beaten by the store, and they were like children who did bad things and were afraid of being caught, in the dark night, hand in hand, stepping on the heavy snow, stumbling and running, shouting, and laughing.
"Do you know...... Yuan Chengcheng shouted excitedly at Guan Jingxuan as he ran, "I ...... a long time ago"
"What?" The people chasing behind were so noisy that Shangguan Jingxuan couldn't hear them clearly, "What did you say?" ”
"I said, I've always wanted to be ...... like this when I was a child," Yuan Chengcheng shouted at Shangguan Jingxuan, "chase after you!" ”
"Now your dream has come true!" Shangguan Jingxuan replied loudly. There was a low wall in front of him, and he jumped over it as soon as he raised his legs, but Yuan Chengcheng was so tired that he collapsed, and he couldn't get by, lying on the wall panting.
Shangguan Jingxuan couldn't, so he had to reach out to support Yuan Qingcheng's slender waist, and hugged her over the wall with all his might. Yuan Chengcheng was already tired like mud at this time, and the whole person was fiddling with him. Shangguan Jingxuan didn't necessarily have any stronger physical strength than her, this hugging person was hugged, but the center of gravity was unstable, and the two of them immediately rolled into a ball, and were caught by the pursuers behind them.
It was another heavy snowfall, and the north wind seemed to know that it had reached the end of its strong crossbow, desperately roaring its last cry, hitting everything it could hit hard, eager to overturn everything to prove its existence, but unfortunately the breath of spring had permeated the entire land, and no matter how hard it struggled, it could not return to the cold momentum of winter.
Huangfu woke up from his dream in a chill, this was not the coldest time, but he felt a kind of cold that was more piercing than the cold day of Sanjiu.
He was not a dreamer, but on this early spring night he had a strange dream that was colder than winter. There may not be anything strange about the dream itself, but what is strange is the feeling after he wakes up, as if he has lost something precious, but he doesn't know what is missing.
There is no trace of this feeling, but it is like a layer of fog, shrouded in the heart, and it cannot be left behind.
For no reason, he suddenly remembered Yuan Chengcheng. He remembered that he had not seen her for many days and nights, of the promises he had made to her, of the fact that he had allowed her to wait alone in that dangerous city for so long.
Waiting, the most painful thing in the world, is waiting. Before encountering Yuan Chengcheng, his waiting was revenge; After meeting her, her wait became his. And the latter made him feel more tormented than the former.
Yes, torment. They are like a pair of lovers separated by mountains, they can see each other with their eyes, but if they want to be really together, they have to endure the ups and downs and joys of going over the mountains and mountains.
In this life, he was fearless, but he didn't have the courage to overbearing her promise to wait for him, because he knew how hard it was to wait, and because he knew, he didn't have the courage to take on the responsibility of making her suffer deeply. But on the other hand, he knew so clearly that even if he didn't ask her to wait, she would still wait for him. It's not about commitment, it's about the nature of love that determines that the person is destined to wait for that person.
But what if she got tired of waiting?
The remnants of snow and the wild grass on the mountains could not hide the little bit of new greenery, and after the seemingly endless cold winter, the faint spring finally revealed the stars but could not hide the hope that the general trend was coming.
When Liu Dark finally bloomed, when all the torment finally came to an end, his heart suddenly lost the courage to ask her to marry him......
